Where is Hurricane Nate now?

Hurricane Nate roared through Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula after drenching Central America in rain which led to at least 28 deaths.

In Nicaragua, Nate’s arrival followed two weeks of near-constant rain that had left the ground saturated and rivers swollen. Authorities placed the whole country on alert and warned of flooding and landslides.

The storm killed at least seven people across Costa Rica.

The damage it caused prompted Costa Rican officials to postpone a World Cup qualifying soccer match between that country and Honduras, which had been scheduled for Friday night.

On Sunday, October 8, Nate made landfall twice in the US, first near the mouth of the Mississippi River in Louisiana – with the US’ National Hurricane Center reporting winds of 85mph.

It then made a second landfall hours later close to Biloxi, Mississippi. Nate was the first Hurricane to strike Louisiana since Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

Nate has since weakend again to a tropical storm before moving its way up the east of the US through states such Alabama and Georgia.

It has now been downgraded again – this time from a tropical storm to a tropical depression.

The remnants of Nate are currently straddling Virginia and West Virginia.

What damage has Nate caused?

Hurricane Nate caused significant disruption and damage as it moved through the southern US on Sunday.

Winds clocking nearly 90mph were reported in Venice, Louisiana and over a quarter of a million people lost power in the state of Mississippi with thousands more in Alabama and Florida also suffering outages.

Flash floods were also caused as a result of Nate in Alabama, Louisiana and Mississiippi.

Nate has already caused devastation and death in Central America – with 28 people killed across Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Honduras.

Hundreds of people have also been saved from floods and mudslides across the region.
